Leo and Judy have resolved to keep their engagement a secret, but once Pam gets wind of it, how long will it be before it is public news?

Peggy and Jackie decide to give Dean a tutorial in transgender issues as this is a brand new subject for the pest controller and he is seriously out of his depth.
